| Obverse description | Left-facing draped bust of Pope Pius VI in pontifical vestments, wearing a camauro and displaying a cross pectoral at the chest. The portrait is rendered in a robust, high-relief style characteristic of late 18th-century Papal coinage. A circular Latin legend runs along the periphery, enclosed within a toothed inner border. The overall design conveys the papal dignity and authority of the issuing sovereign. |
